SLIMLINE CHRISTMAS

Hi Everyone

I hope your week has been going well.

Life is being super busy here at the moment with one thing and another and I seem to be getting nowhere fast .. .. .. in fact the only thing that seems to be going fast are the weeks!

Anyway, just flying in quickly with a card for the Christmas Kickstart Challenge where the theme for the current challenge is "Slimline Cards". 

This card did start off as a full blown DL card but in the end I trimmed it down a little .. .. so now I will need to make and envelope as well LOL!!



This used:

Image and Sentiment:  Indigo Blu " Stag Cliffhanger"
Backing Paper from snippet mountain
Distress Inks:  Stormy Sky, Pumice Stone and Milled Lavender
X-Cut:  Holly Die
White Gell Pen
Pearls
My Trusty Sewing Machine


Christmas card number five into the stock box!

Take care and stay safe.

  1. Great background and I love the deep almost black color of the Indigo Blu you used for the sentiment and image. I like your style!

  4. A wonderful card Jules and a lovely night time feel to your background, goes so well with the stamp. Haven't had a go at the slimline craze yet as I'm not really sure whether I like it, but I may be swayed if it stays xx

  8. I absolutely understand dear Jules, my days are also flying by, and it seems like I get almost nothing done... Well, I have been busy, clearing the snow from the foothpath and terrace (3 times already), and extra feeding the birds in the garden. It's still freezing day and night, maybe milder weather next week. Between all the caring, and also walking the dog, I try to make some wintery cards. Your cards are so beautiful, good to have some already for next Christmas ! Stay safe, all the best ! Enny

  9. A super Christmas card Jules, a fabulous stamp - I quite often cut cards down to fit my main image and then think to myself 'I shouldn't have done that, now I need to make an envelope'.
